?Through Harsh Winters? is a life history written by an anthropologist. The subject is her mother, a woman forty years older than the author. It places the author is a unique position. She is Japanese, like her mother, and part of the family. Her mother will tell her things she would not tell an outsider or non-family member. Yet her mother is Issei, an immigrant from Japan, the author Nisei, first generation born in America. The generational difference with the family relationship provides the author a middle ground between outsider and insider. The life history itself starts with the mother?s life in Japan before her marriage and immigration to the U.S. at the age of 18. It continues through the mother?s life as the wife of a migrant worker. The work is an interesting and valuable insight into the life and attitudes of an early 20th century Japanese woman immigrant to the U.S.
